We just bought the LG RC288 Region 2 version and tried the “0000000” hack. It didn’t work. We found a hack for the RC199H that appeared to be compatible, entered the system configuration menu to change Option 5 to ff but were nervous because the Option codes are different on the RC288. Can you please advise? Here’s the codes on the RC288:

Recorder Combi: Europe Region Code: 2
DVD SW Ver: 061207z LSI SW Ver: LG054
VCR Ver: 04(0611137b0) Loader Ver: SD09
CPRM Key --- Unique
EUID: 00e09119 00000001

Option 1: 12 Option 2: 29
Option 3: 94 Option 4: 73
Option 5: a0 Option 6: c0
Option 7: 70 Option 8: 70
